It would have to be musical. The Bangor Festival at its best would be a good candidate on a good year. The only time in my life I can remember asking to be kidknapped was on a day tip to Dublin following one of those events. That would lead me to wanting to be stuck in Hughes or Keatings... Maybe I'd go a back further back a couple put a few of us up for a long weekend in Dublin - I'd guess at 1990. Fine company, hospitality and some really good music including a party at their house where the carpets were rolled back and some engaged in set dancing till about 3am following a session in Hughes.

The other side of the coin though is I think some of the appreciation comes from the fact things like that are not everyday events for me. I'm not convinced being stuck anywhere is as desirable as being able to consider the really enjoyable events something rare and precious when they occur.
